Restroom & Facilities Use Guidelines

In keeping with principles of nondiscrimination and inclusion, students, staff, faculty, and visitors are invited to use of restrooms and facilities corresponding to their gender identity.

At Cornell, gender identity refers to an individual’s internal sense of gender. A person’s gender identity may be different from or the same as the person’s sex assigned at birth.

Cornell's restroom and facilities use guidelines are unchanged by the recent actions of the federal government. Cornell is committed to our ongoing initiatives underway at the university to continue to advance protections for the LGBTQ+ community.
